City Council <br />asked the Board on the possibility of making the green component of the codes <br />more of a voluntary aspect rather than required and if there has been a study of <br />the life cycle cost for constructing a building to a higher green code. <br />City Council also suggested the Board hold more meetings with the public and <br />other City Boards to discuss what they would like to see included and what <br />direction they would like to see the Board head toward the adoption of the 2012 <br />ICC codes. <br />City Council also believes it might be best for the Board to further review and <br />possible focus studies on the code changes prior to the adoption of the codes. <br />This will help to determine the extent of the adoption of the 2012 ICC codes. <br />
